Description
【0001】[0001]
本考案は製氷皿に関する。 The present invention relates to an ice tray.
【0002】[0002]
従来、家庭用の冷蔵庫内にて製氷するための製氷皿としては、水を入れる凹部 (以下、「製氷凹部」という)が立方体又は直方体のものが用いられている。氷 をすばやく作りたい場合が往々にしてあるので、もし、従来の製氷皿よりも氷を 短時間で作ることができる製氷皿があれば便利である。また、水は凍る時に膨張 するが、従来の立方体又は直方体の製氷皿であれば、製氷凹部の鉛直方向の内壁 からは、膨張した氷は氷を挟みつける方向に抗力を受ける。従って、製氷後、氷 を製氷皿から取り出しにくいという欠点を有する。 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as an ice tray for making ice in a refrigerator for home use, a recess for putting water (hereinafter, referred to as “ice recess”) is a cube or a rectangular parallelepiped. Since it is often desired to make ice quickly, it would be convenient to have an ice tray that can make ice in a shorter time than conventional ice trays. In addition, water expands when it freezes, but in the case of a conventional cube or rectangular parallelepiped ice tray, the expanded ice receives a drag force from the vertical inner wall of the ice making recess in the direction of sandwiching the ice. Therefore, there is a drawback that it is difficult to remove the ice from the ice tray after the ice making.

本考案の目的は、従来の製氷皿よりも短時間で製氷することができ、かつ、製 氷後、氷を取り出し易い製氷皿を提供することである。 An object of the present invention is to provide an ice tray that can make ice in a shorter time than conventional ice trays and that can easily take out ice after ice making.
【0004】[0004]
本考案は、実質的に錐体状の製氷凹部を少なくとも1つ有する製氷皿を提供す る。 The present invention provides an ice tray having at least one substantially cone-shaped ice making recess.
【0005】 本明細書において、「錐体」とは、平面上の閉じた曲線又は折線の周上を一周 する点と、この平面外の一定点とを結ぶ直線によって作られる曲面又はいくつか の平面の一部で囲まれた空間の部分を言い、三角錐、四角錐、五角錐のような角 錐や円錐が包含される。これらのうち、特に好ましいものはピラミッド状、すな わち、正四角錐状のものである。「実質的に錐体状」とは、例えば角錐の角を削 って丸みを帯びさせたものや、錐体の底面に厚みをつけたもの、その他、錐体に 重要でない修飾を加えたいずれのものをも包含する意味で用いている。In this specification, a “cone” is a curved surface or some of a curved surface formed by a straight line connecting a point that goes around the circumference of a closed curved line or a broken line on a plane and a certain point outside this plane. It refers to the part of the space surrounded by a part of the plane, and includes pyramids and cones such as triangular pyramids, quadrangular pyramids, and pentagonal pyramids. Among these, particularly preferable ones are pyramids, that is, regular pyramids. “Substantially pyramidal” means, for example, a pyramid with its corners rounded, a pyramid with a thick bottom surface, or any other non-critical modification of the pyramid. It is also used to mean that
【0006】 本考案の製氷皿は、錐体状の製氷凹部を少なくとも1つ、好ましくは十数個な いし数十個有する。なお、製氷凹部を構成する錐体は、必然的に錐体の頂点が製 氷皿の底部を構成するように配置される。The ice tray of the present invention has at least one cone-shaped ice-making concave portion, preferably dozens or dozens. It should be noted that the cones forming the ice making concave portion are necessarily arranged so that the tops of the cones form the bottom of the ice tray.
【0007】[0007]
以下、図面に基づき、本考案の製氷皿をより具体的に説明する。図1には本考 案の製氷皿の1実施例が模式的に示されている。この実施例では、製氷皿10は 、実質的に正四角錐の製氷凹部12を複数有する。製氷凹部の上部(四角錐の底 部)には厚みがつけられているが、これは製氷皿の強度を増すためのものであり 、必ずしも必要ではない。 Hereinafter, the ice tray of the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 schematically shows an embodiment of the ice tray of the present invention. In this embodiment, the ice tray 10 has a plurality of substantially square pyramid ice making recesses 12. The top of the ice making recess (bottom of the pyramid) has a thickness, but this is to increase the strength of the ice making tray and is not always necessary.
【0008】 図2は、図1に示す製氷皿を2つ用いて実質的に正八面体状の氷を製造する態 様を示している。この場合、上下2つの製氷皿の端部をクリップ14のようなも ので固定する。また、この態様で使用する場合には、上皿として用いる製氷皿に 図示しない注水口を設けておき、上下の製氷皿を図示のように組合せた後、内部 に水を入れることができる。FIG. 2 shows a state of producing substantially regular octahedral ice by using the two ice trays shown in FIG. In this case, the ends of the two upper and lower ice trays are fixed with something like a clip 14. In addition, in the case of using in this mode, a water injection port (not shown) may be provided in the ice tray used as the upper plate, and the upper and lower ice trays may be combined as shown in the drawing, and then water may be put into the inside.
【0009】[0009]
本考案の製氷皿では、製氷凹部が錐体状になっており、従来の立方体又は直方 体の製氷凹部を有する製氷皿に比べて単位体積当りの表面積、すなわち、冷気と 接触する面積が大きい。従って、従来の製氷皿よりも短時間で氷を作ることがで きる。また、本考案の製氷皿では、水が膨張した際に製氷凹部の内壁から受ける 抗力は、氷を製氷皿の上方に押し出す方向の分力を有するので、従来の製氷皿に 比べて製氷後の氷を押し出し易いという利点を有する。 In the ice tray of the present invention, the ice making concave portion has a conical shape, and has a larger surface area per unit volume, that is, an area in contact with cold air, as compared with a conventional ice making tray having a cube or rectangular parallelepiped ice making concave portion. Therefore, ice can be produced in a shorter time than the conventional ice tray. Further, in the ice tray of the present invention, when the water expands, the drag force received from the inner wall of the ice making recess has a component force in the direction of pushing the ice above the ice tray. It has an advantage that ice can be easily pushed out.
